A To Z - Fun With The IT Crowd

I was pondering what to post about today and it popped into my brain. F should ALWAYS stand for Fun! And what do I find fun? Why, watching one of the most awesome shows ever - The IT Crowd. If you are not familiar with this show, let me explain. The IT Crowd was a hilarious British television series that unfortunately only ran for four seasons. The show is about two IT guys (Roy and Moss) and their non-computer literate manager Jen. The crew are relegated to the basement of some huge British corporation, and they get the usual level of respect associated with IT shops (which is to say no respect at all). I absolutely love every single episode. Part of that might be because I'm an IT guy by trade (besides, writing, that is). Oh, and if you do not enjoy the comedic styles of Benny Hill or Monty Python, this may not tickle your funny bone like it does mine. But here is a snippet from one of their best episodes:

Hopefully you got a laugh out of that. If not, don't feel too bad. My wife and kids don't really get it either. And I guess it's just one of those things you either laugh at hilariously or shake your head at before calling the men in white coats.

This is a short post today, mostly because I'm off to find more fun. Where do you find your fun (outside of writing)?

About Me

I'm luckily supported by a beautiful and understanding woman. Between her and my two wonderful boys, I find the reasons I need to keep up my attempts at writing. She's very effective at smacking that imp off my back, keeping me from doubting myself, and making me smile. Other than writing, I enjoy finding new & cool musicians/singers/artists, playing games with my sons, and occasionally playing a game or two by myself. Okay, more than occasionally.
